I decided against the shallow water anchor and went with a new Minn Kota i-Pilot instead (ordered it yesterday).
Hopefully I can get a few bucks for my old Minn Kota that's on there now (it's only been used a handful of times and is still like new) and that will help offset the high cost of the new i-Pilot.
Still debating whether to get a new down imaging sonar unit or not... :-k
On a side note, I plan on having the seals in the lower unit replaced and the carb rebuilt in the spring. Does anybody here know what the usual going rate for that kind of a job is?
I'm guessing no more than $300, but if I am way off it would be nice to know ahead of time (to help lessen the shock lol).
